Instead, an unsaturated allylic hydrogens in propylene. Similar to the oxidation reaction, the direct catalyzed chlorination of catalyzed chlorination of propylene produces allyl chloride through substitution of allylic hydrogens by chlorine. chemical demand for propylene is a little over one half that for ethylene. This complexity of the propylene molecule (due to presence of a methyl group) should limited use of propylene in comparison to ethylene.

By contrast, atactic polypropylene, in which the stereo centers are arranged randomly, is an amorphous gum elastomer. Polypropylene consisting of blocks of atactic and isotactic stereo sequences is rubbery.11 Polymerizing propylene with Ziegler-Natta catalyst produces mainly isotactic polypropylene. The Cosseproduces mainly isotactic polypropylene. The Cosse-Arlman model explains the formation of the stereoregular producing an isotactic polypropylene.

PROPYLENE 1. Introduction Propylene [115-07-1], CH3CH CH PROPYLENE 1. Introduction Propylene [115-07-1], CH3CH CH2, is large quantities of propylene are used in plastics as polypropylene, and in chemicals, eg, in plastics as polypropylene, and in chemicals, eg, acrylonitrile (qv), propylene oxide ( acrylonitrile (qv), propylene oxide (qv), 2-propanol, and cumene (qv) ( see Olefin polymers, polypropylene; Propyl alcohols). Propylene is produced primarily as a by-product polypropylene; Propyl alcohols). Propylene is produced primarily as a by-product of petroleum ( Physical properties of propylene are listed in Table 1 (1). Parameters for the per mole of propylene are a6.373 and b0.08272 when

Compressed liquid propylene densities for metering purposes may be found in the API pressure, Pv, of propylene, equations 2 and 3 apply. Equation 2 is the Antoine thermal properties of propylene are reported in Table 2. Experimental solubility data may be Extensive data on propylene solubility in water are available (20). Vaporliquidequilibrium VLE) data for propylene are given in References (2135) and correlations of transport properties of propylene are given in Table 3. 3. Chemical Properties The chemistry The chemistry of propylene is characterized both by the double bond and by the allylic hydrogen atoms. Propylene is the smallest stable unsaturated hydrocarbon molecule that exhibits low existence of the propylene dipole moment of 0.35 D. Carbon atoms 1 and 2

Vol. 20 Propylene 3The propylene double bond consists of a s-bond Propylene 3The propylene double bond consists of a s-bond formed by two allylic hydrogens in propylene often serves to distinguish its chemistry from that of ethylene to form when propylene polymerizes in the presence of peroxide initiators (49). The allyl hydrogens on propylene reactions can be explained by the stability of allyl radicals is abstracted from propylene, the sp3 hybridized carbon of the methyl group changes allyl radical from propylene requires 368 kJ/mol (88 kcal/mol). This difference

Many types of gas- or liquid-phase catalysts are used higher levels of propylene purity. 3.2. Electrophile Addition Reactions. The addition of electrophilic ( reagents HZ to propylene involves two steps. The first is the slow transfer of to the propylene double bond, to form a carbocation. The second is a why hydration of propylene yields isopropyl alcohol rather than n-propyl alcohol. The nhydrogen bromide to propylene yields 2-propylbromide; free-radical, Br.-catalyzed addition yields 1Using halogens as propylene reactants, high temperatures and the gas phase favor high radical

The furnace operation usually is dictated by computer optimization, the furnace. Thus, propylene produced by steam cracking varies according to economic conditions. In plant separation train, propylene is obtained by distillation of a mixed C3 stream, ie, stream, ie, propane, propylene, and minor components, in a C3-splitter tower. Propylene is

C3-splitter tower. Propylene is produced as the overhead distillation product, and the bottoms purity of the propylene product. Two grades of propylene are commonly produced: a chemical Two grades of propylene are commonly produced: a chemical grade, which consists of 92 of 9294wt% propylene, and a >90 wt%, polymer-grade propylene. Specifications for wt%, polymer-grade propylene. Specifications for these two grades are listed in Tables 4 produce polymer-grade propylene than to produce the chemical grade, because of the close of propane and propylene. 4.2. Refinery Production. Refinery propylene is formed as a byRefinery Production. Refinery propylene is formed as a by-product of fluid catalytic cracking total amount of propylene produced depends on the mix of these processes and the higher level of propylene production than in Europe, where proportionally more heating oil is gas, and coke. Propylene yield varies, depending on reaction conditions, but yields of 2 fluid coking. Refinery propylene is recovered at the vapor-recovery unit. Refinery wet gas

Vol. 20 Propylene 96. Storage and Handling Precautions must be taken to fire hazards wherever propylene is handled (75). Equipment capable of causing ignition should any cylinder containing propylene should be subjected to temperatures above 325 K. Propylene is above 325 K. Propylene is very volatile and is usually stored as a liquid Waste mixtures containing propylene should not be allowed to enter drains or sewers where Commercial quantities of propylene are shipped by tanker or pipeline and are stored aboveground and Safety Factors Propylene is a colorless gas under normal conditions, has anesthetic properties characteristic of olefins. Propylene is a flammable gas under normal atmospheric conditions. Vapor-cloud Evaporation of liquid propylene can cause skin burns. Propylene also reacts vigorously with oxidizing cause skin burns. Propylene also reacts vigorously with oxidizing materials. Under unusual conditions, eg, reported when liquid propylene contacts water at 315348K (82). Table 7 shows hydrocarbon. 8. Uses Propylene has many commercial and potential uses. The actual utilization of of a particular propylene supply depends not only on the relative economics of the the value of propylene in various uses, but also on the location of the in which the propylene is available. For example, economics dictate that recovery of high of high purity propylene for polymerization from a small-volume, dilute off-gas stream whereas polymer-grade propylene is routinely recovered from large refineries and olefins steam crackers. States might use propylene as fuel rather than recover it for petrochemical use; a

10 PROPYLENE Vol. 20The uses of propylene may be loosely categorized The uses of propylene may be loosely categorized as refinery or chemical purpose. In In the refinery, propylene occurs in varying concentrations in fuel-gas streams. As a a refinery feedstock, propylene is alkylated by isobutane or dimerized to produce polymer gasoline chemical derivatives include polypropylene, acrylonitrile, propylene oxide, isopropyl alcohol, and others. In 2002, ca include polypropylene, acrylonitrile, propylene oxide, isopropyl alcohol, and others. In 2002, ca 60% of

of the world propylene supplies were consumed in the production of polypropylene (74). the production of polypropylene (74). Polypropylene has been the largest consumer of propylene polypropylene (74). Polypropylene has been the largest consumer of propylene since the early largest consumer of propylene since the early 1970s and is likely to dominate propylene likely to dominate propylene utilization for some time. 8.1.

However, propylene is diverted from streams for refinery fuel use in large or equipment for propylene recovery does not exist or is limited in capacity. Propylene limited in capacity. Propylene is also contained in liquid petroleum gas (LPG), but olefins for alkylation, propylene is also used, depending on the availability of butenes and catalyzed (84). Propylene alkylation requires higher temperatures and acid strengths than alkylation of good promoters of propylene alkylation (85). The principal isomer of propylene alkylation by principal isomer of propylene alkylation by isobutane is 2,3-dimethylpentane as compared to the of butenes and propylene in the refinery, first through thermal, ie, free-radical, reactions (72).
